Tattooing?...

[bigdave]

Whilst being tattooed last week I thought:

"Why am I paying this man quite a lot of money to colour my arm in? I could do that!"

A few hours later I was the proud owner of this little lot:



I had been drinking prior to ordering and now realise I have absolutely no idea how to actually tattoo but seems as I've paid for it I'm going to try and learn!

Question is......



... Who's first?!?... :icon_lol:

AT the risk of sounding like a nob, are you serious?

I've got a couple of tattoos I've had for a while, but now I don't think I could trust anyone to produce anything typographic permanently on my skin. If the kerning's off I'll have to look at it every day.

Maybe start a niche tattoo business inking typographically perfect designs onto other designers? :icon_tongue_smilie:

Thats a good idea!! Thing that got me thinking about tattooing is that the tattooist who's working on my arm has messed up a few lines and while they're not bad, I know I wouldn't do that.

Bringing a whole new context to the name Bleed Ink.

One of the dangers of drinking, have a credit card and being on the internet...
What's the worst thing you've bought? Bigdave must be up for first prize unless you can do better!!

[bigdave]

I'm notorious for buying stupid stuff when drunk!

Some of my best buys from the past 10 years (in no particular order)
• Tattoo equipment
• A BMX (that was very recently)
• 20 t-shirts all of the same design and size (all too small)
• £200 pool cue
• Mold your own penis kit
• Record player (I have no records)
• Engagement ring

[Katedesign]

Definitely a prize winner!

Does the item depend on how drunk?

Have you used any of them?!!

[bigdave]

Usually it just depends on what I've been talking about whilst getting drunk. Then once drunk, it's all down to what I think is a good idea.

for example the t-shirts were a "buy in bulk and sell them on to make some money".... nobody wanted them! Oh and the mold your own penis thing was a great valentines gift idea!... We wont go into that disaster!!
